Summary

Design Engineer building polished iOS experiences at the intersection of Product Design and Engineering. Requires 7+ years shipping consumer mobile products with SwiftUI/UIKit expertise.

About the role

What You'll Do

  • Take ideas end-to-end from conception to production. Drive creation whether it's collaboration in Figma, a novel proof of concept, or the code that turns concept into reality.
  • Strike a balance between proactive ownership and autonomy with a deeply collaborative spirit, working closely with Product, Engineering, Marketing, and others.
  • Hold an incredibly high standard for quality and craft. Care about the little details (pixel-perfection, microinteractions, motion design) that add up to excellence.
  • Think in systems and patterns. Help establish the design system to ensure consistency and quality across Product Design and Engineering.
  • Experiment rapidly with AI-powered workflows and creative tools that push the boundaries of what the team can accomplish together.

What You'll Need

  • 5+ years (Senior) or 7+ years (Staff) of experience designing and building exceptional consumer products. Portfolio showcases thoughtful design and shipped product experiences.
  • Mobile UI expertise. Craft delightful interfaces with iOS frameworks like SwiftUI and UIKit, and anything else that helps design and build best-in-class mobile experiences.
  • Bias for action. Thrive as a self-starter in a fast-paced environment where you can wear many hats and bring ideas to life.
  • Comfort with ambiguity. Always learning and growing, and can help bring clarity to a fast-moving problem space with more questions than answers.
  • A love for music (listening, exploring, making) is a huge plus.
